Mininet is network emulation software that allows launching a virtual network with switches, hosts and an SDN controller all with a single command on a single Linux kernel. It is a great way to start learning about SDN and Open-Flow as well as test SDN controller and SDN applications. Mininet can be used to deploy large networks on a single computer or virtual machine provided with limited reso...

Abstract- With the advancement and development of computer network technologies, the way for intruders has become smoother; therefore, to detect threats and attacks, the importance of intrusion detection systems (IDS) as one of the key elements of security is increasing. One of the challenges of intrusion detection systems is managing of the large amount of network traffic features. Removing un...

The Single Machine Scheduling with Changeover Costs problem is found in many different workshops. In this case, the main criterion is the sequence-dependent changeover-costs or setup times. This Scheduling problem can be modeled as a Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP) and when time constraints are inserted into the model such as due-dates, the resulting problem is known as the Time Dependent Trav...

porosity is one of the most important properties for comprehensive studies of hydrocarbon reservoirs. for determination of porosity in a rock, that is the ratio of volume of voids to the total volume of the rock, there are two conventional methods: in the first method, direct measurement of porosity is carried out by testing drilling cores. in the second method, porosity is determined indirectl...

Machine to machine (M2M) communication, which is also known as machine type communication (MTC), is one of the most fascinating parts of mobile communication technology and also an important practical application of the Internet of Things. The main objective of this type of communication, is handling massive heterogeneous devices with low network overheads and high security guarantees. Hence, v...

This paper explores the use of a model neural network for motor learning. Steinbuch and Taylor presented neural network designs to do nearest neighbor lookup in the early 1960s. In this paper their nearest neighbor network is augmented with a local model network, which fits a local model to a set of nearest neighbors. The network design is equivalent to local regression. This network architectu...

While a great portion of the scheduling literature focuses on time-based criteria, the most important goal of management is maximizing the profitability of the firm. In this paper, the net preset value criterion is studied taking account of linear time-dependent cash flows in single machine and flow shop scheduling problems. First, a heuristic method is presented for the single machine scheduli...
